Travis County Sheriff's Citizens' Academy

The Travis County Sheriff's Citizens' Academy is an approximately 40-hour program designed to give the citizens of Travis County working knowledge of the Travis County Sheriff's Office and the criminal justice system as it works in our county.

The primary objective of the academy is to build a better understanding between citizens and the Sheriff's Office through education. It is further hoped that the Academy will increase public awareness, dispel suspicions and misconceptions, and increase Sheriff's Office and community rapport.
